Fully agreed!
What makes me anxious over Heena's appearance is how this will affect Seungho's approach towards having a relationship with Na-Kyum, because now he can't treat Na-Kyum as if he's his possession anymore. And as for Na-Kyum, he now has a place to go back to, someone who genuinely loves him for who he is. This is a sincere threat to Seungho's hold on Na-Kyum because now Na-Kyum not only has a reason to leave, but someone whom he can leave with and never come back. Seungho knows he can't win against something like that.
Even these brief moments of defiance by Nakyum are so good. They make me want to know more about him. "Nakyum despises arrogant, filthy nobles like you"... this is interesting. Is his disdain because of some kind of philosophy? Is it the envy of a better life? Or maybe, his negative experience(s) with nobles (obviously before this one).
I feel like I know next to nothing about who Nakyum really is. If his sister is the plot device that, aside from moving the plot, will help us learn more about Nakyum and make him more than just the pushover/victim uke, I love her already.
